TacTile is an engine building abstract strategy game where you move pawns on a board to trigger bonus actions from your tableau of cards.

Your goal is to cross the modular 4 color board and score both your pawns in your opponents home first (or your ally's home in a 4 player game)

As you advance across the board you can gain resources and buy colorful action cards. Action cards are permanently added to your tableau and can give one free action per turn, but you must activate them by landing on a matching color tile. Build your action engine and use clever positioning to activate your cards in this combo-tastic game of tile tactics!

4 player mode is a competitive 2v2 team battle with special cooperative abilities including the ability to push your ally's pawn and swap cards with your ally. You win by either you getting your two pawns to your ally's home, or theirs to yours.

Free actions are two different choices from:

• Move: Move one of your pieces up, down, left or right
• Gain: Gain a resource matching the color either of your pieces is on
• Swap: Swap a resource you own for another color (or swap a card with your ally in a 4 player game)
• Buy: Buy a card from the market
• Reset: Replace the market with fresh cards
• Convert: You may exhaust two available actions for a free action of your choice. Available actions are activated unexhausted action cards - basic actions are not available for convert.
